The previously described algorithm can be considered as the standard PSO algorithm, which is applicable to continuous systems and cannot be used for discrete problems. Various approaches have been put forward to tackle discrete problems with PSO
die voorheen beskryf algoritme kan beskou word as die standaard PSO algoritme, wat van toepassing is op deurlopende stelsels en kan nie gebruik word vir diskrete probleme. verskeie benaderings na vore gebring diskrete probleme met PSO aan te pak.
